I think it's more like the rich looking down on the poor.  It reminds me of the French aristrocracy, "let them eat cake," and all that, because the upper reaches of PC gaming really is superior in all measurable ways.  The reason I say that is because those truly fixated on hardware also look down on PC gamers who play on the family Dell.

That makes more sense.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying your analogy is incorrect.  I'm just speaking from my own perspective, which is that of a 50/50 console/PC gamer who doesn't much care about resolution or cutting edge hardware.  I play on the PC for reasons other than "graphics" so I don't identify with that "Master Race" stuff on a personal level.
